Hiya everyone! Tonight it's time to start helping track down cupid, of Stupid Cupid Hunt fame. We are on the 12th annual round of this particular Evil Bunny Hunts extravaganza, as cupid has been shooting arrows (this year they have bright pink heart shaped tips and light pink feathers/flocking) all over the participating stores trying to make any random love matches he can ;) So if you find an arrow for just $1L, you will receive a reward for helping clean up after him. Their website has the landmarks, hints, and previews of most of the prizes to guide us. We have until the end of the month to find them all, but I figure the sooner the better since some are more distinctly Valentine themed and you may want the prizes on hand this week.
The best place to start is at the very beginning, right? Grumble is our organizer and thus is the first one shown on the hunt website, with their sassy Wrap Dress-Bear prize. The style is flirtatious with deep sides and a peephole in the back that reveals a bit of bum cleavage. We receive sizes for Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Kupra, Lara X, Lara X Petite, Legacy, Maitreya, Peach, Prima Busty, Reborn, and Waifu mesh bodies. The pattern is adorned with bears wearing a studded collar and holding a knife, and I laughed out loud when I saw the heart shaped handcuffs beneath him!
We also have an arrow to find at Emerald Couture, containing their lovely EC Natasha Outfit Red. The dress is cleverly crafted with a built in necklace of pearls that dangle into a deep plunging neckline, flattering above the extra short skirt. There are Erika, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Gen X Classic Dainty, Gen X Curvy Dainty, Khara, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Peach, Reborn, and Waifu mesh body sizes of our dress, with coordinating shoes that fit Erika, Gen X, Kupra, Khara, Legacy, Maitreya, Peach, and Reborn feet. They definitely suit the garnet hue of the dress perfectly, with their own silvery trim that includes the stiletto heels.
When it came time to show some of the colors for our Indigenous - String Hearts Dress prize, I purposely chose nontraditional Valentine colors for variety's sake, but I assure you that they are options too :) The included HUD offers 6 colors for our short, loose fitting long sleeved dress, decorated with what looks like small bunches of heart shaped balloons. The dress comes in sizing for Freya, Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, eBody Reborn, Kupra, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, Petite, Lara X, and Lara X Petite mesh bodies.
Back in the pink, we visit *Glitter Bunny* to claim their Miranda Top TSCH12 which is the female half of this generous prize. Both portions are hidden in the same arrow, and ours is the cropped high-neck shirt with lots of options. There are sizes for Gen X Classic, Gen X Curvy, Khara, Kupra, Kups, Lara X, Petite, Legacy, Perky, Prima, Prima Petite, and Reborn mesh bodies, all with a 4 texture HUD. That offers 2 shades of pink, each with or without the golden embossed pattern that says LOVE. This aspect gives versatility for non-Valentine wear, don't you think? This store name was new to me, but it turns out it's a rebrand of Georg Bellic Design which I recall fondly from many other hunts :) I got a kick out of the GB initials remaining the same, and of course the nice quality is consistent also.
For my final look this evening, I visited Nirvana Fashion and located their ladies' prize called [NF] - Female Valentine Pyjamas - [Pyjama Set-Rose]4. Yes, there is a separately hidden male arrow with matching PJs :) The ones I'm wearing here are a one-piece top and pants set in standard mesh sizes along with Freya, Isis, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, and Reborn mesh body sizes. The unrigged slippers will fit most flat feet, and the sleeping hat is another fun addition that can also be adjusted as necessary. I certainly look and feel ready for some Valentine snuggling in this prize!
Sometimes Mondays feel like they are several days long, LOL, and this one seemed to be one of them. I read an obituary tonight that moved me to tears several times for many reasons, one being I adored the man it was written for and another being simply what a wonderful life he'd led. He was a minister/pastor but that's not how I met him; that was through the farmers market where for over a decade I saw him, his wife, and one of his daughters each week. His daughter baked Irish goods (he was the first generation born in USA, they were his family's recipes) and he was the type of person who teased the people he liked so I am glad to have fond memories of frequent teasing from him :) What I learned from the obit that touched me was learning he was very active in the civil rights movement of the 50s and 60s, marching with Dr. Martin Luther King, and he himself held a Masters and a Doctorate in Theology. He was always very warm and kind, which is how I will remember him most, and his family shares those qualities so I treasure their friendship too. Can you tell I'm weeping at this point? She closed her business recently to care for him as he battled dementia, so I was aware that his health was failing and had been concerned for the family. I'm trying to think of something more cheerful to wrap this up with...all I can think of is my usual wishes for a good day/evening and many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
